Can you imagine the FALLOUT on here if we'd put all of our Premier League eggs into a Sturridge-shaped basket ? I wouldn't have touched him with a shitty stick. Pardew must've been mad, desperate or stupid to have gone for that deal...probably all 3.
The sheer blind panic at some clubs over getting relegated from the PL is truly something to behold. Its like they're running round the boardroom with their trousers on fire.
